Hi William,

Have you used "fuser /dev/hdc" to locate processes accessing the cd? In
the past I have had problems unmounting CDs due to "fam" helpfully
monitoring the mount. Killing fam as root allows the CD to be unmounted
and ejected.

Cheers, Ben

In this case, you can kill "gam_server". You don't need to be root. Looks like a bug that came with the last gamin update.
